[00:02] Yukiatsu
Guess you aren't the only one.
[00:05] Jinta
Huh? What do you mean?
[00:08] Yukiatsu
The only one who can see Menma...
[00:12] Poppo
Let's go, Jintan!
[00:16] Poppo
Hey!
[00:34] [SONG] ---
nanpehji mo tsuiyashite
tsuzurareta bokura no kibun
[00:34] ---
All our feelings that we've written
lie across so many pages.
[00:41] [SONG] ---
doushiteka ichigyou no
kuuhaku wo umerarenai
[00:41] ---
Still, for some reason that's lost to me,
there's an empty line that I can't fill in.
[00:48] [SONG] ---
oshibana no shiori hasande
kimi to korogasu tsukaisute no jitensha
[00:48] ---
I mark it with a pressed flower bookmark,
and ride on a throwaway bicycle with you.
[00:57] [SONG] ---
wasurekake no renga wo
tsumiageta basho ni yukou
[00:57] ---
Let's go to the place we know, with all those
bricks, nearly forgot, stacked so high.
[01:05] [SONG] ---
umi wo miwatasu saka wo kakenobotte
[01:05] ---
And then we can climb the
hill that overlooks the sea.
[01:10] [SONG] ---
kowaikurai ni aoi sora to
[01:10] ---
Under a sky so blue it's almost scary,
[01:14] [SONG] ---
migite ni saidaa hidarite wa
zutto kimi wo sagashiteiru
[01:14] ---
my right hand holds cider, my left
hand extends, searching for you.
[01:22] [SONG] ---
souyatte ima wa boku no hou e
toitsumeru koto mo nakute
[01:22] ---
Just like that, the now that lives all around
us never comes to me asking questions.
[01:29] [SONG] ---
mada futari wa sugusoko ni irunoni
[01:29] ---
The two of us are standing
right here, still together.
[01:36] [SONG] ---
douka mata aemasuyouni nante
[01:36] ---
But then, to say, "I hope we meet again..."
[01:44] [SONG] ---
douka shiteru mitai
[01:44] ---
Something must be wrong with me.
[01:58] Poppo
Heeey!
[01:59] Menma
Heeeeey!
[02:01] Poppo
Heeey! Hey, Menma!
[02:06] Menma
Where aaare youuu?
[02:08] Poppo
Say something! Hey, say something!
[02:12] Anaru
Yadomi? What's wrong?
[02:17] Menma
Heeeeey!
[02:19] Menma
Jintan?
[02:21] Jinta
We don't need more than one Menma...
[02:23] Anaru
Huh? Hey, hold on—
[02:28] Anaru
H-Hey, listen!
[02:31] Anaru
Um...so, you tried to come to
school the other day, right?
[02:39] Anaru
Y'know, those girls didn't mean any harm...
[02:43] Anaru
So why don't you come one mo—
[02:44] Jinta
It didn't bother me.
[02:46] Anaru
R-Really?
[02:48] Jinta
Yup. You and...and those friends of
yours can say whatever you want.
[02:53] Jinta
It won't have the slightest effect on my life.
[02:56] Anaru
What the heck!? So not cute!
[02:59] Jinta
I don't want to be "cute." I'm not my dad.
[03:03] Anaru
Yadomi, hold on—
[03:12] Anaru
Th-Thanks...
[03:15] Anaru
- Sor—
- Wake up.
[03:17] Jinta
Are you a total idiot...?
[03:26] Anaru
Yadomi...
[03:28] Jinta
This—this stupid...
[03:31] Jinta
You...just like Menma...
[03:35] Anaru
Hey...
[03:36] Anaru
Menma...she just appeared to you, right?
[03:41] Anaru
You...really did like Menma, huh?
[03:45] Jinta
Wh-Why are you—
[03:47] Anaru
You...you like her so much that...
[03:51] Anaru
You started seeing things that
weren't really there...right?
[03:56] Jinta
You—didn't you just say
how you could believe...?
[04:00] Anaru
I can't say for sure, but...
[04:04] Anaru
If you really can see Menma,
make sure you're nice to her.
[04:08] Anaru
I won't pretend to
understand, but...please...
[04:12] Poppo
Hey, Jintan! Did you find her over there?
[04:16] Anaru
- We should get going.
- S-Sure...
[04:21] Poppo
This sucks. No sign of her at all...
[04:24] Menma
Jeez, how boring! I wanted
to see Menma, too...
[04:32] Yukiatsu
Welcome back. Food's ready.
[04:34] Poppo
Yukiatsu! What are you doing just
chilling out here by yourself!?
[04:38] Menma
The food looks so yummy!
[04:39] Yukiatsu
Menma asked me to.
[04:43] Yukiatsu
When Menma appeared before
me, she gave me a message.
[04:47] Yukiatsu
She said not to fuss over her anymore.
[04:50] Poppo
What? Menma said that...?
[04:52] Yukiatsu
I admit, I couldn't hear her clearly...
[04:55] Yukiatsu
But I think she's annoyed that you're
making such a big deal out of her "wish."
[05:01] Menma
That's not true at all! I...
[05:05] Menma
I'm so happy that you all got together
again and you're thinking about me!
[05:11] Menma
This is all making me really, really happy!
[05:15] Menma
Even though I died...I still want
everyone to stay friends!
[05:21] Menma
So I...I...
[05:24] Poppo
Well...if that's what Menma really wants...
Maybe it's best if we lay off.
[05:29] Anaru
Yeah...maybe...
[05:34] Menma
It's not...
[05:39] Jinta
O-Oh, hey! Everyone, look!
[05:44] Tsuruko
Steamed bread?
[05:45] Poppo
Whoa! Now that takes me back...
[05:48] Poppo
Your mom used to make this
for us all the time!
[05:51] ANaru
Oh yeah, I remember that!
[05:53] Jinta
These are...
[05:56] Jinta
Menma made them.
[05:58] Poppo
Ohh...so...
[06:02] Menma
Jintan?
[06:06] Yukiatsu
What, so a ghost made us some bread?
[06:09] Yukiatsu
I think you've taken this whole thing a little
too far. Wouldn't you say, Hisakawa?
[06:15] Poppo
Huh? Oh, well...I'd say it's pretty unique.
[06:20] Menma
Jintan...
[06:21] Jinta
I don't care if you all think I'm
weird or crazy or whatever.
[06:26] Jinta
Menma says...that she's happy
we all got together like this.
[06:31] Jinta
That she doesn't want us
to forget about her!
[06:37] Menma
Jintan...
[06:39] Yukiatsu
That's enough.
[06:41] Yukiatsu
You just can't forget her, can you? You're
trapped in those memories of Menma.
[06:47] Yukiatsu
You're pitiful.
[06:49] Yukiatsu
Man, talk about a buzzkill. You guys
enjoy the rest of the food.
[06:54] Poppo
Hey, Yukiatsu!
[06:58] Jinta
Sorry...
[07:00] Jinta
I'm gonna take off, too.
[07:02] Jinta
Enjoy the steamed bread, everyone.
[07:04] Poppo
- Everyone—hey!
- Yadomi...
[07:08] Poppo
Well...
[07:12] Poppo
This has certainly turned
into a juicy situation.
[07:15] Tsuruko
Hey...
[07:17] Tsuruko
What did the Menma that you
saw look like, Hisakawa?
[07:20] Poppo
Huh? Well, she was wearing
a white dress, and...
[07:24] Tsuruko
Did it have a small ribbon,
right around here?
[07:28] Poppo
I'm not totally sure, but
thinking about it...huh?
[07:34] Poppo
How'd you know? Oh!
Did you see her, too!?
[07:37] Tsuruko
Could be.
[07:39] Poppo
You're such a mysterious girl, Tsuruko...
[07:58] Menma
H-Hey Jintan...I wonder what the
Menma that Yukiatsu saw is like...
[08:05] Menma
I-If I'm Menmario, then that would
make her Menluigi, right?
[08:09] Menma
Wouldn't it be funny if she
had second-player colors?
[08:12] Jinta
Sure would...
[08:33] Jinta
Friggin' Yukiatsu...I just don't get him.
[08:36] Jinta
Menma said not to fuss over her?
Man, screw that delusional—
[08:42] Jinta
Okay, well, I guess I'm the
really delusional one here...
[08:52] Jinta
But still...I couldn't let him...
[08:57] Jinta
I couldn't let him distort
Menma's feelings like that.
[09:01] Jinta
I...
[09:03] Anaru
You...really did like Menma, huh?
[09:10] Jinta
Shut up.
[09:14] Menma
Jinta-kun!
[09:16] Menma
We heard there was a very good boy here
named Jinta-kun and came to see him!
[09:21] Menma
Uh-oh! Our good-boy radar
found something!
[09:25] Jinta
Hey, Menma...
[09:27] Menma
There's no Menma here! Just a
stuffed lion and a kokeshi spirit!
[09:32] Menma
Ahh, just kidding! The correct
answer was...me! Menma!
[09:37] Jinta
Correct answer...?
[09:44] Jinta
You really haven't changed.
[09:47] Jinta
Nothing!
[09:49] Menma
Jintan! Knock it off...!
[09:56] Anaru
Hey, Jintan...umm... Do you...like...Menma?
[10:04] Jinta
Hey, Menma...
[10:09] Jinta
Never mind. Time for bed!
[10:13] Jinta
Lights are goin' off!
[10:14] Menma
Okay!
[10:34] Jinta
So...back then...
[10:39] Jinta
What did you...really think of me?
[10:48] Jinta
This is stupid.
[10:59] Tsuruko
A dress with a ribbon on the chest...
SIGN Episode 4: A White Dress, A Blue Ribbon
[11:13] Atsushi
I have to get going now, Toko-san...
[11:18] Atsushi
Hey Jinta-kun, a bill collector
should be coming by today.
[11:21] Atsushi
The money's in the top drawer of my
dresser. Could you give it to him?
[11:25] Jinta
- Sure.
- Have a nice day!
[11:27] Jinta
Have a nice—
[11:32] Atsushi
Okay, see ya later!
[11:36] Jinta
What?
[11:39] TV
This Indian summer shows
no signs of slowing...
[11:41] Menma
Whoa! This guy's head is
really funny-looking!
[11:45] Jinta
You know...
[11:46] Jinta
I haven't gone to school since that day...
[11:48] Jinta
But she's completely stopped
pestering me about it.
[11:54] Menma
- Visitors?
- The bill guy?
[11:56] Jinta
Yeah, I'm—
[11:58] Jinta
- Tsu-Tsuruko!
- Morning.
[12:01] Jinta
Why aren't you at school?
[12:03] Tsuruko
Oh, we're getting ready
for the culture festival.
[12:06] Tsuruko
Our class is doing an a capella karaoke café.
[12:09] Tsuruko
- Isn't that silly?
- Huh...
[12:12] Tsuruko
- Can I come in?
- Oh, sure.
[12:14] Tsuruko
- Thank you.
- Hey, so why are...?
[12:18] Tsuruko
Nothing's changed here, I see.
Exactly how I remember it...
[12:22] Tsuruko
Hey, so why does your house have
a kotatsu with this wood flooring?
[12:26] Jinta
- How should I know?
- Jintan, snacks!
[12:28] Menma
You have to serve your guests snacks!
[12:34] Jinta
So all I have is Country Ma'am cookies...
[12:38] Tsuruko
That steamed bread...
[12:40] Tsuruko
It wasn't as soft as what your
mother used to make.
[12:45] Menma
Oh, really?
[12:47] Tsuruko
I think the flour needed more sifting.
[12:50] Tsuruko
And baking powder would have
helped it fluff up a lot better.
[12:53] Menma
Wow! So it wasn't the missing raisins
that made it turn out bad!
[12:58] Jinta
You know how to cook?
[13:00] Tsuruko
Anyone can cook as long as
there's a recipe to follow.
[13:05] Menma
Not me!
[13:07] Tsuruko
And as long as your amount and
time measurements are correct.
[13:10] Tsuruko
In other words, as long as you don't
get caught in a weird position.
[13:17] Jinta
So what are you doing here? I'm getting
a bad feeling about this visit...
[13:22] Menma
Hey, Jintan!
[13:23] Tsuruko
Let me just say, I still can't accept that
Menma made that steamed bread.
[13:32] Jinta
Well yeah, of course. What
normal person would—
[13:36] Tsuruko
But that's also exactly why I have
to ask you to do a favor for me.
[13:47] Aki
And then guess what he said!
[13:49] Aki
"You smell so good, but I bet your
armpits smell even better"!
[13:54] Aki
- What kind of pick-up line is that, right?
- That's so nasty!
[13:57] Aki
I was like, "What, you have
some kind of armpit fetish!?"
[14:00] Aki
- What's up?
- Naruko, what's wrong?
[14:03] Anaru
S-Sorry... I just remembered something!
[14:06] Haruna
Jeez...is it just me, or has
Naruko been super flaky lately?
[14:10] Aki
I know, right? It's really
getting on my nerves.
[14:18] Anaru
That's Yadomi, right?
[14:23] Tsuruko
What, you can't tell by
that frizzy mop of his?
[14:28] Anaru
So what are you doing here—?
[14:30] Tsuruko
Official Super Peace Busters business.
[14:33] Tsuruko
We're going to bust apart this fake peace.
[14:37] Menma
Hey, Jintan...are you really
gonna do this? How come?
[14:44] Jinta
Honestly, I have no idea. But—
[14:53] Jinta
H-Hey...
[14:56] Jinta
Hey, hold on!
[15:01] Jinta
Listen—
[15:02] Yukiatsu
The second trimester's started. Should you
really be wandering around like this?
[15:09] Jinta
Menma keeps bugging
me not to stay indoors.
[15:15] Jinta
So, Yukiatsu...what'd the
Menma you saw look like?
[15:25] Jinta
My Menma said—
[15:28] Jinta
Er, no—I mean, the Menma at my place said
that the Menma you saw was a fake.
[15:38] Jinta
We're all heading to the
secret base right now.
[15:41] Jinta
Why don't you go get your
Menma and come with...us?
[15:46] Yukiatsu
Who do you think you are?
[15:50] Yukiatsu
You're not our "leader" anymore, okay?
[15:53] Yukiatsu
Not that I accepted you as my
leader back then, anyway.
[16:00] Yukiatsu
Don't talk to me like you know
me, you loser chicken.
[16:11] Anaru
Wh-What was that about...?
[16:13] Tsuruko
Well done, Yadomi-kun.
[16:26] Yukiatsu
Dammit...
[16:28] Yukiatsu
Menma...time to come out.
[16:32] Yukiatsu
It's time...for him to see.
[16:36] Yukiatsu
Let's show him.
[16:43] Tsuruko
You didn't have to come too, you know.
[16:45] Anaru
I-I was just bored!
[16:47] Anaru
Who cares, anyway?
[16:50] Anaru
Want some? I've been itching all
over ever since the barbecue.
[16:54] Tsuruko
I'm fine. Maybe if you showed less skin...
[16:57] Menma
- Jintan...you're not a loser chicken.
- My skin's just fine!
[16:59] Menma
- You're a winner chicken.
- It's cute!
[17:01] Jinta
Either way, I'm still a chicken.
[17:04] Menma
You know, the Menma that Yukiatsu saw...
[17:06] Menma
It might not be a fake.
[17:08] Menma
It wouldn't be that weird for there
to be another me, would it?
[17:14] Menma
I mean, I don't even know what I'm
doing here, or how I got here...
[17:25] Poppo
Huh? What're you guys doing
here? Is it party night?
[17:30] Anaru
C'mon, kill the lights already!
You're blinding us!
[17:32] Poppo
Oh! Sorry, sorry...
[17:36] Poppo
Mmm, delish! So much better
than coffee from a can!
[17:42] Poppo
Fantastique!
[17:43] Tsuruko
My parents bought a new one at the bazaar.
[17:46] Tsuruko
This one's pretty old, but it's
all yours if you want it.
[17:49] Poppo
Man, you're just the greatest!
[17:52] Anaru
Oh yeah?
[17:53] Poppo
And not only that, but you brought cups!
[17:56] Menma
I like being here with everyone so much...
[18:01] Menma
It's so much fun spending
time with everyone.
[18:05] Menma
But... But...
[18:09] Poppo
- Men—
- I know! Let's let Menma have a taste, too.
[18:13] Poppo
Whaddya say, Jintan? Is Menma here?
[18:16] Poppo
Maybe here? Or over there? Please!
[18:19] Anaru
What are you doing?
[18:20] Jinta
Hey, Poppo...
[18:21] Poppo
You know, after the barbecue,
I started thinking...
[18:25] Poppo
She said she'd be happy if
everyone got together, right?
[18:31] Poppo
And I was just like, "That is so totally
something Menma would say!"
[18:38] Jinta
Poppo...
[18:39] Poppo
She doesn't want to be forgotten?
There's no way we could ever forget her!
[18:43] Poppo
Menma just worries sooo much!
[18:49] Menma
- Poppo!
- Wh-What's happening?
[18:50] Anaru
- I love you!
- What's wrong?
[18:52] Poppo
Just lost my balance...
[18:55] Poppo
Now I'm getting goose bumps...!
[18:57] Poppo
I must've drank too much coffee...
Time to release the pee!
[19:00] Menma
- Ah, Men—
- Me too! I'm gonna go pee with you!
[19:03] Tsuruko
You could never forget Menma...
[19:06] Tsuruko
You're trapped in those memories
of Menma. You're pitiful.
[19:12] Anaru
Lay off, Tsuruko!
[19:14] Tsuruko
Everything Yukiatsu said...
He was saying it about himself.
[19:24] Anaru
- Wh-What is this!? Oh, curtains!
- What's your deal?
[19:26] Popppo
- Your fly's completely open.
- Who cares about that!? I just saw her!
[19:30] Poppo&Menma
Menma!
[19:37] Poppo
Over here! C'mon, hurry up!
[19:41] Jinta
Hey, are you sure you saw her?
[19:44] Poppo
I'm sure! I made totally sure.
You remember what Tsuruko said?
[19:50] Poppo
She had a dress, right? And it had
a ribbon right around here!
[19:57] Jinta
A dress with a ribbon...
[20:00] Poppo
Hey, let's go already!
[20:02] Menma
Oh! Jintan, over there!
[20:08] Anaru
Whoa! That's—!
[20:10] Poppo
It's her! It's Menma!
[20:12] Tsuruko
It's...
[20:14] Menma
Jintan!
[20:15] Poppo
Hey, Jintan! Don't go off by yourself!
[20:24] Poppo
Hey! Menma! Heeey!
[20:31] Anaru
I...I have to stop...
[20:35] Poppo
Are you okay?
[20:36] Anaru
Just...let me rest.
[20:38] Popppo
Jintan, see her!?
[20:39] Jinta
She was here just a second ago...
[20:45] Poppo
It's no use...let's head back.
[20:47] Tsuruko
Oh come on!
[20:48] Tsuruko
You're way too big, you know!
Go ahead, shave your legs!
[20:52] Tsuruko
It's still completely obvious!
[20:55] Tsuruko
Yukiatsu!
[20:58] Menma
Jintan!
[21:00] Jinta
Over there!
[21:03] Jinta
Let's go!
[21:04] Anaru
Ah! H-Hey, wait!
[21:23] Poppo
Jintan!
[21:26] Poppo
You find—?
[21:27] Jinta
Um...yeah.
[21:35] Jinta
Yukiatsu...
